Clergy Manual

The latest version (November 2016) of the Clergy Manual is available for download from the related resources panel.

It is primarily for those clergy on Common Tenure and outlines their duties and responsibilities under the Ecclesiastical Offices (Terms of Service) Measure 2009. It also gives details of what clergy can expect in terms of their employment and welfare rights. Nevertheless, it may also be helpful for those who chose to remain on freehold and for churchwardens in giving examples of good practice.
